TT Brake Service
Last year we bought 2017 Prowler 28ft. I would like to service/clean the brakes before this season. I'm looking for the information and for some reason I don't see proper instruction how to clean it. ...

OK, I know the self adjusting trailer brakes.
1. Do you "only" feel the "jerking", whenever it happens, occur when you are applying the brakes and then "stops jerking" when you stop applying the brakes?
2. OR, does the jerking start when you have applied the brakes, and may continue for a short while even after you stop applying the brakes?
3. The key point it, the issue "starts" with a braking action, yes or no?
Please answer all 3.

John,
We bought this trailer about a year ago, and during the summer I've experienced it probably 5-6 times.
1. It happened when I have applied the brakes during the slow down, like before the traffic light. When the speed was around 10 mph I've felt the jerking for a second, just before it came to full stop.
2. No, it didn't happen when I applied the brakes. And it didn't continue when I stopped applying the brakes.
3. No, it doesn't start with the braking action.
I've mentioned before, I've read in truck's manual that the truck stop applying the TT brakes when the speed below 12 mph (or something like that).
Any chance it's related to truck and not trailer?
